My mother (late 60s) is at a BMI of almost 50. She can barely walk 10-20 steps before running out of breadth. She has struggled with weight for 10+ years but combined with some depression and arthritis its gotten significantly worse in the last few years.
She has tried controlling diet (although not in a very disciplined way) but with limited success. As a consequence she has gotten extremely demotivated and given up. Also many of the family telling her what she already knows (that she need to lose weight) is getting her more frustrated.
I am looking for ideas on what can she realistically do and how we (family) can help. I have seen so many of you achieve amazing results in this group so looking for ideas to get unstuck
A few things are are exploring - weight loss surgery (but unlikely she will be a candidate given other health complications) - some kind of away health facility for more dedicated care and guidance
Open to any other suggestion to get her motivation back and start getting back on recovery. Any suggestion or similar experience would be very appreciated.
Thanks you so much!
